Not yet bottled, the 2018 Condrieu Coteau Du Chery boasts a mammoth bouquet of white currants, tangerines, crushed citrus, and toasted brioche. It’s a rich, full-bodied, powerful Condrieu that somehow stays flawlessly balanced and light on its feet. One of the insider-only producers in Condrieu is Andre Perret, who has a tiny cellar just south of the village of Condrieu. His whites are consistently at the top of the heap in the Northern Rhône, and his reds rarely get the credit and recognition they deserve. You can’t go wrong with any of these wines, and if you have tried a wine from Perret, get out there and find a bottle!
